Congrats to Michelle on her second place finish on Sunday, 9/30, in the Ruby Sablo Memorial Weightlifting Competition. Michelle's great day on the platform came from months of dedicated work under the sharp eye of coach Jason. We are so proud of her!

A. Strength: Back Squat (16:00)5-5-5-3-3-3-1-1-1These are not maxes! While these lifts may get heavy–they should not be maximal effort. We have back squat cycle around the corner and I want you to take today to get the feel for heavyish back squats. You may highbar or lowbar–up to you. The upcoming back squat cycle will be athlete’s choice highbar/lowbar - but I want the athletes to stick to whichever one they choose for the entire duration of the cycle.
